Oh, tanookie, I’m sorry. That really does suck. And NOT in a good way. Is the baby ok?
Can’t believe I forgot to ask…“are YOU okay?” too…
Baby and I should be fine… he’s likely to be a little early because it seems I’m starting down the road to preeclampsia but we knew all this in advance and went through the same thing with the munchkin. We were able to put off delivering her until 37 weeks and I’m hoping we don’t have the boy until he’s big enough to take home with us.
I’ll have to post a tanookiewatcher’s update thread wednesday when I have some concrete info and a height and weight on the baby as I have a small but identifiable fan club
please do, hon, and I will keep good thoughts going for you and the tanookie family. Are you going to deliver c-section? or induce?
We’re having a C-section. I had one last time after a failed induction and it is too dangerous to induce after a Csection as pitocin raises your chance of a ruptured uterus.
It does indeed, as well as other lovely complications of having a vaginal delivery after a prima partum c-section. end of shop talk, before Dave spanks.
And speaking of our absent host, I think we should volunteer him to set up tanookie’s bedroom with a web-cam & a decent laptop. As long as we’re all hanging out here, anyway…
Hubby can set me up with the laptop We’ve got a wireless LAN and everything. I refuse to webcam in my beached whale state though… sorry! Anyone who wants to visit can come on down but I ain’t broadcasting my preggo self to the 4 corners of the world
Oh and I’m not afraid of the big bad bear or a few spankings
Well, I notice differences between any two people, but it never even occurs to me to categorize and compare them.
I’m pretty articulate when I want to be, but I would barely know where to begin describing this. Someone smart, who sees thinks that I wouldn’t notice (but wish that I had); and I can be a sucker for a cute woman with glasses. Apart from that, I just know it when I see it.
Okay, I know it was a cut-and-paste error, but damn it’s weird to see that posted under my name.
And all my best wishes, tanookie.
Isn’t it amazing how Davebear can reply to different posts all on one post of his own? By the time I get done reading one post I have so many replies thought of…I’ve forgotten what I wanted to say to begin with.
Most of all though, Thanks, you are right in your crude but true reminder of why I am mad at him and why it is much much better to sleep alone in my bed than to share with him. Sucks right now b/c we are in that limbo of not quite broken up and not quite not broken up…I don’t have time now but later on tonight I am posting a thread of my own [Yes Dave - my own and it will be long drawn out complicated & ugly but will never reach 17 pages…or probably 3 for that matter!]
So yeah I could go out and get fucked but…that isn’t exactly my style. Thanks anyway. I think after thinking things over, I am more inclined to tell him to go get fucked.
Oh and Rocky…sorry about your sexless date…ate least we “rock crushing” girls didn’t get you too revved up. (And any rock crushing I would do would be entirely pleasurable I assure you)

Hence the aforementioned cluelessness. Gotta be interested in why people act the way they do, not just what they do. Not that I’m any better, when it comes to women flirting with me, unless they’re really obvious about it. My mind keeps saying “Nah! She couldn’t have meant it that way!”, and dismissing it.

No wonder you liked Lorene. I wonder what’s happened to her, anyway.

LOL! Sorry, dude. Yeah, that must’ve been weird.

Well, if will make you feel any better, here’s a reply just for you. I started doing the multi-replies back in the early days of the SnS thread, because I wanted to reply to everyone, but people said I should do separate replies to each. It’s much easier, doing individual replies, but it does put a tad more strain on the hamsters, in theory. (As a software engineer, I don’t totally buy that theory. I’d want to see some performance metrics to back it up.) So…what was I saying?
Most of all though, Thanks, you are right in your crude but true reminder of why I am mad at him and why it is much much better to sleep alone in my bed than to share with him. Sucks right now b/c we are in that limbo of not quite broken up and not quite not broken up…
Well, it was crude, but it was going to hurt, no matter how I said it, so I went for a laugh. I was in a playful mood, anyway, at the time. Probably didn’t get a laugh, but I hope you realize it wasn’t said with malice. You and I piss each other off on a regular basis, but I am sorry you’re unhappy about your situation.
**I don’t have time now but later on tonight I am posting a thread of my own [Yes Dave - my own and it will be long drawn out complicated & ugly but will never reach 17 pages…or probably 3 for that matter!] **
Ya’ never know; it might. I never expected this thread, or the SnS thread, to run so long. And, even if it rubbed you the wrong way, you know that I wasn’t being mean when I said I’d appreciate you starting your own thread. I meant exactly what I said; I appreciate it.
**So yeah I could go out and get fucked but…that isn’t exactly my style. Thanks anyway. I think after thinking things over, I am more inclined to tell him to go get fucked. **
Good plan.
It probably won’t do any good, but I’m going to ask you to please not take this the wrong way. But, it sounds like you’ve wasted way too much of your life on a relationship that is never going to work. And, you do have a lot to offer, to the right man. Stop wasting it on a walking penis.
!!!Dave!!!
This has been a test. In the event that I need everyone’s attention in an emergency… the post will be much longer.
Thank you.
Please carry on.
NOpe… no pools in California, that’s for sure!
oops… that post was referring to a pool post a PAGE ago!:smack:
Things just move SOoooo fast in Daveland … what’s a poor slow-movin’ grasshopper to do? curls quietly back onto his little rice-paper mat, licking the last of the rice-juice from his bowl … in a most sympathy evoking way … then …

Sh! Wyatt!! Everyone on the east coast knows in their bones that they are superior to Californians. Let’s not do anything do disabuse them of that notion. Why do I get this feeling that I’m gonna pay for that one?
Oh…much delayed…para prima, not prima partum. :smack:

Say that out loud 10 times, really fast.

And, don’t listen to Dave. I’m from California, for goodness sakes. How much could I POSSIBLY know about playing 9ball? I mean, pool?
I’m partial to straight pool, myself, although it’s strictly a two-player game; doesn’t work if you’ve got a whole group who want to play. And you never see pool halls with those scoring beads over the table anymore.
And I never play for money.

I’ve never had an instinct for that. It’s fine to hash things out after the fact. But at the time, I just get too wrapped up in the ideas of the moment to give any thought to analysis or strategy.

I should have added “really obvious about it” to my list of ideal qualities. In my case, we’re talking Citgo-sign obvious.
No wonder you liked Lorene.
I wonder what’s happened to her, anyway.
I noticed she’s made herself a bit scarce, lately. I hope we didn’t scare her off.

Obviously, that was supposed to say “should NOT do…” sigh

If only we could get that through that denial defence you poor people use. You’d be so much better off, if you could simply accept reality. But, no, we won’t make you “pay” for that. You live in California. You’re already suffering enough.

Yeah, I know that problem. I tend to alternate between doing that and spending so much time analyzing that I miss whole chunks of the conversation. Neither of which is exactly ideal.
**I should have added “really obvious about it” to my list of ideal qualities. In my case, we’re talking Citgo-sign obvious.

LOL Yeah, that would do it.
**I noticed she’s made herself a bit scarce, lately. I hope we didn’t scare her off. **
Oh, I doubt it. She doesn’t seem to scare easily. I’m hoping she’s just on vacation.

I was serious when I thanked you, it didn’t piss me off in the slightest. I think an honest and true friend warns their friends before they step on a land mine…ya know? And you and I talked privately about him before he ever came to Corpus and I know I remember saying “He is just going to hurt me” and damn! I should have listened to myself but you know the eternal optimist I always hope that somehow love will conquer all…when will I learn?
Anyway, I don’t resent your comments, honestly, I appreciate it. We are friends - relax…I am not as bad as you think I am either!
